Today, many institutions are giving due recognition to this fact. Below, find a selection of highlights from new and noteworthy female-identifying artists, hand-picked by Artsy’s Curatorial team.

‘Sarah Winkler has made her own form of narrative told through the geology of time and space. By creating painterly textures based on patterns found in landscapes, Sarah suggests familiar places. Layers of stone, sand, ice, and mountains are arranged to capture a moment in nature that will inevitably change.’ - Southwest Contemporary, 7/9/21

Geology Lesson - Artist feature in LUXE INTERIORS AND DESIGN MAGAZINE.
“I’m trying to inspire people to care about the Earth, and to respect it,” Sarah Winkler says of her goal in creating her art, landscape paintings that are as layered and rich as the geological formation process. “I love that as a landscape painter you get to climb mountains, walk trails, and be in nature as part of your job. I get such pleasure from being outdoors, and I want to pass that on.”

Winkler Review IN WESTWORD: Color Brightens New Shows at K Contemporary
"Pretty much all of the paintings here are large, and some are enormous: The multi-panel, billboard-sized “Colorado River Flow” is over twelve feet across. The various shapes splayed across the three panels do not represent a literal landscape, and this is especially true across the bottom, where the elements seem to have been freely associated. Winkler conjures the illusion of the landscape through the tight margins of the various parts, especially across the tops of the compositions, which read like mountain ranges set against the skies. Her repeated use of horizontal elements stacked on top of one another successfully suggests the idea of a scenic view without specifically referring to it. Taking all these attributes into account, I realized that Winkler was right: Her paintings are abstractions and, technically speaking, not actually representations of external reality." - Michael Paglia, Westword, July 2018

Sarah Winkler Featured in Scientific American
Sarah Winkler is featured in “Out of the Shadow – Artists respond to the Total Solar Eclipse” By Kalliopi Monoyios for Scientific American, September 2017. “According to NASA, light levels under totality “resemble twilight conditions about 30 minutes after sunset.” Colorado-based painter Sarah Winkler caught this beautifully in a series of paintings she’s creating in what she calls her “totality palette.’”
